  1. Where is it located? I have a friend that was looking at them! rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  2. You are at the correct location now. RA is great for riding info in AZ. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  3. Are you looking to keep it in the same location or change to under the seat as in the later models? What is the matter with your present tank? rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  4. Interesting what was done with the diamond plate. Sure will protect the fenders. A upgrade I did was change out the belts to camlock Crow belts. I just don't like the lever lock all tho they are suppose to be better in the sand. I would ask for a written copy of the upgrades/mods. Good luck! rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  5. Welcome. I have many Canadian friends and have heard from them about the prices being higher North of the Border. My recommendation is wait before you add a supercharger or turbo, they are most helpful in the sand. You will be suprised how well the Trooper climbs in EVERYTHING else. For where you are, spend the extra $ on an enclosed cab. Also one caution because of where you are, you will want to reseal/tape connectors on the wiring harness so moisture does not get at the connectors. The connector seals are not good, IMHO! OR only use it when it is dry and no stream crossings. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  6. Just post the info here and the mods will copy or move the info. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  7. Mauy Thai, Doesn't matter who the manufacture is as long as it is a good rebuildable & re-valveable shock. What is important is the damping/valving. I had to change the valving to get the action I was looking for. Soft compressing & med-hard rebound. All this is mixed together with finding the correct spring rate. All my shock info is on the site here somewhere. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  8. Mauy Thai 1 & iltrooper, Remember it is better to have great shocks & damping than to have tons of supension/shock travel. The travel does you no good if it is too much or out of control and pulling components apart. Kind of sounds like what is going on. As suggested before, adjust the limit straps down or better shocks with great damping. I went the damping route and do not have to run limit straps as the shocks are under control. Good luck, rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  9. Sounds like the CV joint let go. Kinarfi is the man that has pulled his apart the most. He will respond to you. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  10. Superstition is Monday before the Jamboree and we will be able to leave from camp and go almost directly into the sand. rocmoc n AZ
  11. There will also be sand dunes at Superition (near el centro) and AZ as well. rocmoc n AZ
  12. When you do the dunes with the paddles I will take the bike out. It does really well in the sand and by then my better 3/4s will be ready for AC & ice tea. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  13. I think we are going to have to pull some double car drafting Nascar style to keep up with them. Or sneak over during the dark of the night and EQUALIZE things, LOL! rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  14. Kind of the reason I have been holding back on any large investments into motor upgrades to my Trooper. I think I would rather buy a sandrail and add it to the toy coral. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  15. MAN, with all the hot rod Troopers coming I hope I can keep up !!!! rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  16. WELL, time to bring this back to the top of the page. Looks like Rick, Lenny & us so far with reservations. Did I miss anyone? We are going to fit on one group space!!!!! Is this still a go? rocmoc n AZ
  17. goindeep, Please share the part #, year, model, cost & where you purchased the mitsubishi starter. We will add to the parts list on this site. Big big help when we find this type of information. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  18. IMHO, looked the same with some pretty new colors in a few locations. rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  19. Excellent response Len. Thanks!!!! rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  20. There was some posting about a new cast iron header on the NEW Troopers. The postings were about torque addition & avaiablity. Did anyone followup on this? rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  21. Len, can you expand on the larger throttle body? We are talking about the Massflow Meter, right? What did you do? Would the stock engine benifit from more fuel at the Massflow meter? I don't understand the benifit of the fuel controller if you can't shove it thu the MassFlow meter. With a larger throttle body, I do see it. rocmoc n AZ
  22. What do you contribute to the making the greatest hp gain? Same for torque gain? When will your shop open for aftermarket upgrades and parts? rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
  23. He is here & will respond. Projects keep him busy but he always returns!!!! rocmoc n AZ/Mexico
